There are a number of large public services in Spain that continue to live on in the last century at a technological level, at least as far as their applications and web portals are concerned. A clear example is that of RENFE, but the EMT of Madrid.
However, they seem to have put the batteries in the face of its application for iOS. Now the EMT Madrid application has been updated for the iPhone X screen and has completely revamped the user interface. It now features an easier-to-use design and powers a new entertainment service.
If you were waiting for a payment platform to be able to renew your transport card, a system of messages or notifications… Well, you have to keep sitting waiting. Meanwhile, we must settle for the fact that the user interface of EMT Madrid has finally been completely updated, thus adopting an iconography and a navigation system much more typical of iOS.. Among other things, we will continue to ask to see the complete routes of the stops only with the number, as well as to take advantage of the location system, things that we could do before but now become much more comfortable given the renovation.
The important thing, however, is the fact that it has already been fully adapted to the screen sizes offered by the different iPhones thanks to version 8.0.0 of the application. The icon has also been slightly modified, adopting the most updated logo of the transport company metropolitan area of the Community of Madrid. This is in addition to the recent possibility of paying for tickets inside the bus through mechanisms of contactless payments such as Apple Pay of what we informed you recently. You can download the Madrid EMT application for free.
Those who work on modernizing the app should work only on Thursdays, so they have only been damaged to change the icon and remove some black stripes, like the IB unionists for the next agreement, who only meet on Thursdays to have churros and leave it for the following Thursday.
Maybe the design has improved but the minutes that indicate what is left until the bus arrives now without minuscule, very difficult to see.
I have been telling you for more than two months that the application for the Apple Watch is closed and, as much as they answer me that they are going to fix it, they still do not; I thought I would take advantage of this update but it seems that it has not been.
All the best
